In science class, Jada uses a graduated cylinder with water in it to measure the volume of some marbles. After dropping in 4 mar

bles so they are all under water, the water in the cylinder is at a height of 10 milliliters. After dropping in 6 marbles so they are all under water, the water in the cylinder is at a height of 11 milliliters.
If this can be represented by a liner model, predict the height of the cylinder after dropping in 8 marbles.

Answer:

The height of water in the cylinder after drooping 8 marbles is 12 mm

Step-by-step explanation:

∵ The change of the height of the water varies directly with the change of the  number of marbles

∵ (h2 - h1) α (x2 - x1)

∴ (h2 - h1) = k (x2 - x1)

∴ (11 - 10) = k (6 - 4)

∴ 1 = 2 k

∴ k = 1/2

∴ (h2 - h1) = 1/2 (x2 - x1)

∴ (Δh) = 1/2 (Δx)

∴ h3 - 11 = 1/2 (8 - 6)

∴ h3 = 1/2 × 2 + 11 = 12 milliliter

Subtracting the second equation by 18 on both sides, we have xy=-18. Next, we divide both sides by x to get y=-18/x  Plugging that into the first equation, we have x+2(-18/x)=9. Multiplying both sides by x, we get x^2-36=9x. After that, we subtract both sides by 9x to get x^2-9x-36=0. Finding 2 numbers that add up to -9 but multiply to -36, we do a bit of guess and check to find the answers to be -12 and 3. Factoring it, we get 
x^2-12x+3x-36=x(x-12)+3(x-12)=(x+3)(x-12). To find the x values, we have to find out when 0=(x+3)(x-12). This is simple as when you multiply 0 with anything, it is 0. Therefore, x=-3 and 12. Plugging those into x=-18/y, we get x=-18/y and by multiplying y to both sides, we get xy=-18 and then  we can divide both sides by x to get -18/x=y. Plugging -3 in, we get -18/-3=6 and by plugging 12 in we get -18/12=-1.5. Therefore, our points are (-3,6) and (12, -1.5)
